In July 1943 Germany launched Operation Citadel to pinch off the Kursk salient. Tigers, Panthers and Ferdinands met layered Soviet defences packed with mines, guns and trenches, then crashed into massed armour at Prokhorovka. This episode unpacks why Citadel stalled, how Soviet depth and artillery decided the fight, and how the counteroffensives seized the initiative for good.
